MEMORANDUM ORDER as to motion to quash; Tab A-l, Summary of Investigation.The Document behind Tab 1 constitutes the VSP's investigative summary, directed to Portsmouth Commonwealth's Attorney Earl C. Mobley. It is an evaluative summary containing the impressions of its authors concerning the evidence described. In addition, most of the factual material describedin the document is available in other, separately categorized materials. Accordingly, the VSP's motion to quash is granted as to A-l, which will not be produced. Tab B-l, Portsmouth Police Department Reports A number of documents behind B-l concern investigative materials prepared by the Portsmouth Police Department. Because these materials were obtained from Portsmouth Police Department, which has raised other objections to their production, the Courtdeclines to order their production from the VSP file pending argument on Portsmouth's separate motion. Tabs C-l through C-4, Crime Scene ExaminationThe four documents contained under the category "Crime Scene Examination", reflect objective analysis of the physical condition of the scene where the incident occurred. All of the information in document C-l through C-4should be produced, subject to the Protective Order. Tabs D-l through D-4, Lab Reports All of the documents in section D involve postmortem testing and examination of the decedent, Denyakin, no factor warrants withholding themand they will be produced subject to the Protective Order. Tabs E-l through E-6, Rankin Materials Materials in section E relate to the defendant, OfficerStephen Rankin, documents E-1 and E-5 will be produced subject to the protective order. Documents E-2 and E-6 will be produced subject to the protective order. Documents E-3 and E-4 may be withheld and VSP's motion to quash is granted in part with respect to E-3 and E-4. Tabs F-l through F-3, Denyakin Materials The materials in section F also relate to the decedent,Kirill Denyakin. F-l is a report concerning the investigator's review of video footage from security cameras near the scene. F-2 contains a search warrant and return for records related to the emergency medical treatment by those who responded to the incident. The third document, F-3, is a summary of informationobtained from Immigrations and Customs Enforcement concerning Denyakin's immigration status. These documents present purely factual data. Although the report of video evidence in F-2 contains the investigator's observations of a person believed to be Denyakin, they amount to only a description of his physical condition without subjective characterization. In addition, thevideo evidence itself is available in the event any party disagrees with the investigator's characterization. The report contains useful time-stamped data concerning Denyakin's suspected appearance in the footage and it, along with the other two factual documents in section F, will be produced subject tothe Protective Order. Tabs G-l through G-23, Witness Interviews. Documents in section G include summaries of witness interviews conducted by VSP's Chief Investigator between May 5 and May 31, 2011. The witness statements with the witnesses' dates of birth and phone numbers redacted shall be produced subject to the Protective Order. Tabs H-l through H-20, Police Statements. H-l through H-20 will be produced, subject to the Protective Order. Tabs 1-1 through 1-6, Chain of Custody and Request for Examinations, they will also beproduced subject to the terms of the Protective Order. Tabs J-l through J-16, Audio/Video and Other Evidence. The evidence included in the J-l through J-9 be produced subject to the terms of the Protective Order. The VSP's motion to quash is granted with regard to J-10. The VSP's motion to quash isgranted with respect to J-ll and J-12. J-13, J-14, J-15, J-16 and J-17 must be produced subject to the Protective Order. Tabs K-l through K-5, Additional Material, the undersigned declines to order the production of any of the documents addressed in K-l through K-12. Subject to the terms of the Protective Order entered this day, the undersigned directs the VSP to produce the foregoing materials to Plaintiff's counsel within ten (10) days of thisOrder. Costs for copying and duplication shall be paid by Plaintiff's counsel. The materials submitted for in camera review may be retrieved from chambers by the VSP for use in making necessary copies.

MEMORANDUM ORDER as to motion to quash; Tab A-l, Summary of Investigation.The Document behind Tab 1 constitutes the VSP's investigative summary, directed to Portsmouth Commonwealth's Attorney Earl C. Mobley. It is an evaluative summary cont aining the impressions of its authors concerning the evidence described. In addition, most of the factual material describedin the document is available in other, separately categorized materials. Accordingly, the VSP's motion to quash is grante d as to A-l, which will not be produced. Tab B-l, Portsmouth Police Department Reports A number of documents behind B-l concern investigative materials prepared by the Portsmouth Police Department. Because these materials were obtained from Portsmo uth Police Department, which has raised other objections to their production, the Courtdeclines to order their production from the VSP file pending argument on Portsmouth's separate motion. Tabs C-l through C-4, Crime Scene ExaminationThe four documents contained under the category "Crime Scene Examination", reflect objective analysis of the physical condition of the scene where the incident occurred. All of the information in document C-l through C-4should be produced, subject to the Protective Order. Tabs D-l through D-4, Lab Reports All of the documents in section D involve postmortem testing and examination of the decedent, Denyakin, no factor warrants withholding themand they will be produced subject to the Protective Order. Tabs E-l through E-6, Rankin Materials Materials in section E relate to the defendant, OfficerStephen Rankin, documents E-1 and E-5 will be produced subject to the protective order. Documents E-2 and E-6 will be produced subject to the prot ective order. Documents E-3 and E-4 may be withheld and VSP's motion to quash is granted in part with respect to E-3 and E-4. Tabs F-l through F-3, Denyakin Materials The materials in section F also relate to the decedent,Kirill Denyakin. F-l is a report concerning the investigator's review of video footage from security cameras near the scene. F-2 contains a search warrant and return for records related to the emergency medical treatment by those who responded to the incident. The third document, F-3, is a summary of informationobtained from Immigrations and Customs Enforcement concerning Denyakin's immigration status. These documents present purely factual data. Although the report of video evidence in F-2 contains the i nvestigator's observations of a person believed to be Denyakin, they amount to only a description of his physical condition without subjective characterization. In addition, thevideo evidence itself is available in the event any party disagrees with the investigator's characterization. The report contains useful time-stamped data concerning Denyakin's suspected appearance in the footage and it, along with the other two factual documents in section F, will be produced subject tothe Protective Order. Tabs G-l through G-23, Witness Interviews. Documents in section G include summaries of witness interviews conducted by VSP's Chief Investigator between May 5 and May 31, 2011. The witness statements with the witnesses' dates of birth and phone numbers redacted shall be produced subject to the Protective Order. Tabs H-l through H-20, Police Statements. H-l through H-20 will be produced, subject to the Protective Order. Tabs 1-1 through 1-6, Chain of Custody and R equest for Examinations, they will also beproduced subject to the terms of the Protective Order. Tabs J-l through J-16, Audio/Video and Other Evidence. The evidence included in the J-l through J-9 be produced subject to the terms of the Protective Order. The VSP's motion to quash is granted with regard to J-10. The VSP's motion to quash isgranted with respect to J-ll and J-12. J-13, J-14, J-15, J-16 and J-17 must be produced subject to the Protective Order. Tabs K-l through K-5, Additional Material, the undersigned declines to order the production of any of the documents addressed in K-l through K-12. Subject to the terms of the Protective Order entered this day, the undersigned directs the VSP to produce the foregoing mate rials to Plaintiff's counsel within ten (10) days of thisOrder. Costs for copying and duplication shall be paid by Plaintiff's counsel. The materials submitted for in camera review may be retrieved from chambers by the VSP for use in making necessary copies. Signed by Magistrate Judge Douglas E. Miller and filed on 11/7/11. (jcow, )
